This 100+ year-old house is full of character and love. Close to stores, restaurants, Lake St Clair, Grosse Pointe Farms, St John Hospital. 15-minute drive to downtown Detroit. This room is for solo adventurers / business travelers. Simple, small room downstairs.
I might agree to allow one dog, for $10 extra per night. But you must clear that with me first.

Feel free to use the (big)kitchen along with staples (cooking oil, spices, sugar, etc). Provide your own food. Store it in my refrigerator and cupboard.
Feel free to use the porch, back yard, and living room.
Sheets, blankets, pillows, towels provided.
Ample parking.
Sometimes I'm busy or tired and don't interact much. Sometimes I have time, and am happy to share a meal or coffee, or even take guests to my favorite places.

Ample parking on street and/or in my driveway.
Unfortunately there is very little public transportation in Detroit. Our bus system is difficult to depend on. You're better off renting a car or looking into Uber.
Taxis are very expensive. When I have time I'm happy to help with rides (I'll charge you less than a taxi).
Detroit is an interesting mix of creativity, resilience, poverty, struggle, grit, and good people just trying to live a decent life. We have a complicated history. Nothing is simple.

My selection of this home was one of the highlights of my stop in Detroit. Julie's thoughtful consideration of my needs and desires for my stay were much appreciated, and I hope other travelers will enjoy staying with her as I have.

AndrzejJuly 2016

Julie was very accommodating and me gave a tour of the house and answered any questions I had. All of the information I needed, including contact numbers, the wi-fi password, and the house rules were on the night stand beside the bed. Her listing is accurate in saying that a car is almost a necessity to survive. I did manage to get around by walking and taking the bus while I was there for nine days, but it takes a long time to go anywhere via public transit--I spent three hours, changing buses three times, to travel from DTW airport to this location. When I had to leave early, Julie was very flexible and gave me a ride to Ann Arbor for much cheaper than in a taxi, and definitely a shorter ride than on a bus.

EricAugust 2016

Julie was a fantastic host. The farmhouse was a nice retreat, quite, comfortable and relaxing.. 5 stars!

JoeAugust 2016

Julie is awesome. She does a great job of making you feel at home. I had no problem falling asleep and the bed is comfortable. Julie is an engaging person! I would recommend the room.

GilbertNovember 2016

Julie was a wonderful hostess. She went above and beyond to make my stay a pleasant one. A great place to stay for those on a budget.

GeorgeJuly 2016

This was my first of. Experience staying at an Airbnb. The host was very accommodating, even though I arrive late into The night. The house was filled with an eclectic array of art objects and a delicious scent emanated from her kitchen, making me longing for a home cooked meal.

The Duck 'N' Roll inn is a three bedroom home situated on a urban duck farm. A combination of contemporary features and old-time cottage charm will keep you comfortable and cozy while you enjoy Detroit's east side. It is close to Grosse Pointe, and most Detroit destinations are quickly reached by freeway.

The Duck 'N' Roll Inn has been a home to journalists, documentary filmmakers, artists, performers, urban planners and explorers, and this year, a temporary home for families reuniting. It's been a joy to teach the kids about the ducks!
The "Duck 'N' Roll Inn" is an eclectic farmhouse on an urban duck farm, officially known as Laid In Detroit. The farm provides pasture raised duck eggs to the Woodbridge Pub, as well as local residents. Located in the easy-going east side, Laid In Detroit was voted "Best Inner City Duck Farm" by the staff of the Metro Times. Though it's not so much an "inner city" vibe as it is a laid back oasis amongst urban sprawl. It encompasses 4 city lots full of trees and garden, with a 3 lot community garden just across the street.
The house has 3 bedrooms--a nautical room, and kid friendly room, and a spacious bedroom known as "the disco room," which features a large skylight, a woodburning stove, enormous chalk boards, and a sound system with a disco ball so that it doubles as a dance floor!
There is one full bath with an extra wide jacuzzi tub, as well as a half bath on the first floor. The property also features a steel bbq in the form of a dinosaur, an adobe pizza oven on site, as well as panoramic views of the gardens and the ducks frolicking in the pasture.
We have a new addition to the farm! Meg, the livestock guardian dog is keeping us safe from predators and prowlers, along with Sox the cat. Great Pyrenees guardian dogs are known for their friendly, gentle demeanor, as well as their superior livestock guarding abilities. She is still a puppy, but already a doing a great job with both ducks and people alike. When you meet her, give her a biscuit and a pat. She loves guests! (By the way, dogs and cats are off limits to the house unless invited! No worries if you are allergic or not an animal lover.)
The house is full of character with a large kitchen and dining area. The property also has many ecological features, such as a green roof over the duck coop and permaculture gardens. Your stay here will not only be relaxing and fun, but educational as well.
Typical guests who have really enjoyed the Duck 'N' Roll Inn are artists, urban gardening fans, photographers, journalists, film makers, animal lovers, students, musicians, world travelers and anyone with an adventurous mindset.
You can also rest easy knowing that the money from your reservation is going directly to a small farm business in a developing neighborhood in Detroit.
Cornerstone Village, once a stable working class neighborhood founded by Belgian immigrants (some refer to it as "the Belgian triangle") has also been affected by the recent mass exodus from Detroit. But a strong coalition of homeowners with deep roots in the community have held things together.
You will encounter some blight and vacant homes in the neighborhood. There are characters, and oftentimes people are out and about, playing music and socializing, but it is a friendly neighborhood, All guests have had a safe experience here.
There are many great restaurants nearby, as well as bars, pubs, and grocery stores. The Cadieux Cafe and Ye Olde Tap Room have been around for a century. Trader Joe's and Kroger grocery are within walking distance.
Laid In Detroit has hosts many events, including an annual Easter party for the kids, and a Christmas party for the adults!
I live right next door to the inn, and I am often home most of the day. Should you need anything, even a light bulb changed, I can get to it quickly.
In the past, guests have a had special requests, everything from tours of the city, to barbeques and small weddings. If you give me enough notice, I am happy to clear my calendar so that we can make the best of your stay here in Detroit!

Detroit is not known for its convenient public transit (not yet, anyway). We recommend renting a car. In the end, it's cheaper and more convenient than a cab, and a good way to get to and from the airport.
Detroit does have a growing web of bike paths, however, and it can be a great way to see the city. I have four bikes available for guests to use, and, if given enough notice, I will be even take you on a tour!

We had a great stay at the Inn. Meg the dog lives up to the hype and feeding watermelon to the ducks was a big highlight. The neighbourhood was not that bad, there were just some empty houses, but there were people around and everyone was friendly. A great stay if you're looking for a unique AirBnB.

MelanieJuly 2015

We loved the duck farm!!! The house is charming and tidy and clean. The ducks were entertaining. Suzanne was responsive, laid back and a perfect hostess. Please visit Detroit and stay here!!!!!!

Bernadette June 2015

Had a great time at the duck farm during our visit to Detroit. The house is beautiful, the shower pressure is beyond belief, and coffee with the ducks in the morning was a great close to our experience in the city. Suzanne gave us some great recommendations about things to do in the neighborhood--feather bowling is not to be missed!

JeffJuly 2012

The Duck n' Roll inn was exactly as advertised and a really cool place to stay, we plan to come back anytime we need a place to stay in Detorit.

KurtisApril 2016

The host and house were simply wonderful! Seeing the house in real life is simply magical and we had an amazingly stay.

EmilieApril 2016

Terrific, authentic Detroit experience. The place is about a 20 minute drive from all the usual landmarks and neighborhoods you'll want to visit if this is your first time to Detroit (it was for us). Because Detroit is so underpopulated relative to its size, its pure joy to drive around these enormous, scarcely populated boulevards. However, despite its distance from downtown relative to other AirBnb listings, it's very close to Grosse Pointe, one of the toniest neighborhoods in the United States. Some beautiful examples of Detroit residential architecture are very close by. The neighborhood that Suzaane's place is in is a mix of abandoned homes and homeowners. We never felt unsafe, and I thought this was a much better example of the "Two Detroits" (to be so close to both the luxury of Grosse Pointe and the blight of rest of the city) than some of the trendier places we visited like Corktown and Midtown. Thanks to Suzanne's place, I feel like I'm close to understanding Detroit in full. Ditto for all the nice things other have said about Suzanne, the dog, and, how can I forget, the ducks.

JNovember 2015

This was a wonderful weekend getaway in Detroit! Suzanne was a gracious host, the ducks charming, and Meg the dog an engaging companion. Thanks so much!

JohnFebruary 2016

This is a big statement to make, because I love every AirBnB experience I have so, so much... but... The Duck'N'Roll Inn is one of my very favorites! Suzanne's space is not only perfect for a small group stay, and convenient to any Detroit adventures you want to have, it is inspiring. Being from Toledo, I travel to Detroit often and my best visits have been when I've gotten to converse with those artists/makers/do-gooders/pioneers working to bring the city back. Suzanne's farm is an absolute oasis and while others have left negative feedback on the neighborhood, I have nothing but the positive to exude. Everyone was friendly, and we found some neat little shops and restaurants within a short walking distance. I liked that it was in the city enough that nothing we had planned was more than a 15 minute drive away, yet the neighborhood was quiet enough that the bustle of the city life quieted down a bit as you reached the Inn. Meg (the Great Pyrenees megadog) was an absolute treat to have around- affectionate yet well-behaved. The ducks were a joy to watch, and true to Suzanne's advice, they will absolutely befriend you for a little watermelon! We even got to watch some black squirrels and other little birds hop around the property from our breakfast table! The woodburning fireplace in the bedroom was so relaxing to sit around in the evenings, and although I didn't use the jacuzzi feature, the bathroom with it's spaciousness, abundance of aloe plants and limitless natural light was relaxing. The kitchen was our hub for the weekend, as we cooked most meals at the Inn to save cash on going out. Everything worked as promised and it was well-stocked in terms of dishes, coffee mugs (and actual coffee!), cooking pans, etc. Also, I left feeling like my house has been missing a lit disco ball all these years! Suzanne was a super accessible and knowledgeable host. Her feedback was prompt and she was even kind enough to answer the phone in the middle of her own birthday party to answer our questions! I enjoyed our brief chats and hope to come back in the warmer weather and meet any new ducklings that join the Duck'N'Roll family!

A cute room with a comfy full size bed perfect for 2 in a bungalow in a very amazing neighborhood 15 minutes from downtown Detroit, 2 minutes from a shopping district and 5 minutes from water access. It is good for couples, solo adventurers, business travelers, families (with kids), big groups, and furry friends (dogs, no cats please).

A quaint room in a cute house with hardwood floors, minimal furniture and the smell of fresh flowers daily.
Guests have access to: the entire first floor common areas: living room, kitchen, dining room, bedroom, bathroom; backyard, back patio and front porch. There will be an empty cabinet for any food you care to purchase as well as an empty section in the refrigerator. Guests are welcome to use any dishes and appliances. There is a washer and dryer on the premises available to those staying 7 or more nights.
As an introvert, I'll be around but in my own space. I will meet the guests the night they arrive to show them around the home and assist with any questions about the area and city.

The home is a cute bungalow and an affluent neighborhood. It's walking distance to grosse pointe, a suburb of Detroit, that has many shops, bars, restaurants and grocery stores.
Though close to city bus lines, I recommend using uber instead. We are a quick drive to a major freeway, 12 minutes from downtown Detroit and a short 3 minute drive to the lake and river.
Guests may request cooked meals. As a baker and chef, I cook daily and this is a great bonus to travelers that enjoy home cooking.

The house is extremely nice. Great furniture. Fully equipped kitchen. The bed is huge and really comfortable. She provides a booklet of information about the apartment procedures and information for tourists about Detroit, and it was actually really useful for me, I used it several times. Garnet is very pleasant and unobtrusive. Her two dogs are both really nice.

This 100+ year-old house has character. It has been filled with love, music and lots of good people. On the edge of the city (of Detroit), in a little corner within walking distance from Grosse Pointe Farms, stores, post office & hospital. 15-minute walk to Lake St Clair. Large kitchen!
I might agree to allow one dog, for $10 extra per night. But you must clear that with me first.

Feel free to use the (big)kitchen along with staples (cooking oil, spices, sugar, etc). Provide your own food. Store it in my refrigerator and cupboard.
Feel free to use the porch, back yard, and living room.
Sheets, blankets, pillows, towels provided.

House is in a great location for exploring Grosse Pointe and Lake St. Clair area. The house is indeed an old farm house. The pleasant surprise was learning the house had been part of Kerby farm. My wife is a direct descendant of the Kerby family that founded Grosse Pointe. Julie was a great hostess, even though we hardly saw her. We had a busy day and had a place to crash, it was better than staying in a hotel.

PaulApril 2015

Ms. Julie's place had a cottage welcoming feel right off a main street in downtown area...the perfect hideaway. She was more than accommodating. Being New to the area this place is situated in a very nice neighborhood.

William TJuly 2015

Just the best experience. I was interviewing at St. John hospital and the location is a 10 minute walk away, so that part was great. The room was perfect and comfortable and my own space. But what really made the trip worthwhile was Julie. She was so welcoming and immediately I felt like I'd known her for years, but if I had wanted to hide in my room the whole time she would have been completely respectful of that. She showed me around Detroit and explained neighborhoods to me since I'll be moving to Detroit soon. I've never had a better Airbnb experience!

LoraNovember 2015

Awesome place!! Julie is a great host, she's interesting and welcoming. The room is also very homey. The neighborhood is beautiful, there's a park nearby, and the lake is also very close. I recommend living here :)

MeiyiJuly 2013

Our experience staying with Julie was great. She's super nice. The house is comfy and located on a really chill street with families, plus it's right off i94 so it's pretty easy to hop on there and get places around the city. The front porch and back yard picnic table are awesome for warm-weather visits. I would definitely stay there again. Trader Joe's and kroger nearby...

charlesMay 2014

I've known Julie for 35 years or so. So much fun to return to Michigan and stay with her! Her home is warm and inviting, clean and well stocked with everything we could have wanted. She's a considerate hostess, I highly recommend staying with her!

My place is close to parks, art and culture, great views and a short drive to the city center. This section of Detroit is called East English Village and it is situated right next to Grosse Pointe. You’ll love my place because of the neighborhood, the location, the outdoors space, and the proximity to all!. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, and business travelers.

The space is good for 1 or 2 people. Because the bedroom is located close to my bedroom, and for privacy issues, we prefer to rent to travelers who are sharing a room, like a mother/daughter or 2 sisters or friends. About the bed, this isn't a pull out sofa, it's a bed sofa that is comfortably firm and we have put a memory foam on it as well as a cushioned mattress pad. So this bed sofa sleeps like the most comfortable mattress because of the memory foam/mattress pad combination. Happy dreams will be had by all!
You can use all the common areas of the home, living room, kitchen and laundry in the basement.
My roommate, Tinisia Brown, is a long time Detroit resident and she can tell you just about anything you need to know about the city. I won't be living there until after February, so you will only meet Tinisia for now. Interaction can be as much or as little as you want. Tinisia is working most days and is busy with church and other family events so you may not see very much of each other. Tinisia is the most pleasant person ever, and always willing to help if she can so you can be sure to have a lovely interaction.

The house is about 10 minutes from Downtown Detroit and 2 minutes from Grosse Pointe. The neighborhood, East English Village, is quiet and safe with the loveliest neighbors, safe and pretty. There's a Starbucks, Panera Bread and Trader Joe's just 2 minutes drive in Grosse Pointe, along with many wonderful restaurants.
Although there is some public transportation nearby, you would be better off with a car to get around in. There are car rental services very close to the house. Enterprise Car Rental will pick you up and drop you off if you rent with them.
Please let me know if you drink coffee or tea in the morning and I will be sure to have some there for you. The coffee shops are only a 2 minute drive away but I'd love to have something for you in the house to make your stay more comfortable and your waking more happier!

Gorgeous 3 Bedroom home close to restaurants and dining, shopping, and many of Detroit's visitor attractions. You’ll love cozy yet chic feel of my newly rehabbed home and warm hospitality. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, and business travelers.

Beautiful 1937 Colonial with three spacious bedrooms and 1.5 baths. Chic furnishings add a touch of elegance to this newly rehabbed home. Close to downtown Detroit for your sports events, sightseeing, and dining; and closer to the Grosse Points for upscale shopping and fine dining. Located in the budding Morningside neighborhood, my home can be seen as a diamond in the rough. Prior to moving in, I spent a year volunteering side by side with Habitat for Humanity and other community members before I purchased the home from Habitat. Living here as a single female I haven't had any problems and I can assure you that this is a safe and mostly quiet neighborhood. I’m well acquainted with most of my neighbors and we all look out for each other. I take pride in the upkeep and cleanliness of my home and love welcoming couples, professionals & visitors to Detroit.

Lynn made my boyfriend and I feel very welcome. She was extremely accommodating to our schedule when we ended up arriving later than we had thought. She even bought us soap, had a bowl of fruit in our bedroom and offered to change the sheets and towels everyday if we wanted. She is still renovating the house as a whole, but the bedroom and unattached bathroom were completed. We ended up having the whole house to ourselves, most of the time, which was nice. The kitchen was mostly unusable at the time we were there, but there was a minifridge and a microwave that were accessible. We didn't try out the TV in the room, so no info there. The neighborhood is somewhat rundown, but really charming and only 10-15 minutes from everywhere we ended up going in Detroit. We got to park our car behind the house on the driveway instead of on the street, and our bedroom opened onto a porch that faced the back, so we also had our own entrance. Lynn was warm and wonderful and is doing awesome things with the Airbnb money. We would stay there again if we end up back in Detroit.

We offer a comfortable, spacious bedroom inside a beautiful brick bungalow in the Grosse Point area. We do not live on the property since May 2016. We live a mile away and stop by regularly to clean the house. There is plenty of good restaurants within walking distance. This room is perfect for students on rotation at St. John's Hospital.
We rent out 4 rooms in this house to both short term and long term guests. There will most likely be other people in the house during your stay.

We no longer live in the house since May 2016. We live a mile away and stop by regularly to clean the house. It is most likely that we would not meet you during the stay. We communicate through AirBNB and always try to respond very quickly.

Our neighborhood is a beautiful place with many similar old brick bungalows, and the occasional colonial scattered throughout. The streets are well kept, the children are often out playing in their front yards, and people are always out walking their dogs and enjoying the weather in the summer.
There is a bus system called smart bus. You can go to smartbus.org to help plan your transportation throughout the city. It is a pretty slow way of getting around though. We highly suggest using the smartphone app Uber. To call a taxi typically costs $15 for a ride to downtown Detroit, and about $30 for a ride to the Detroit Metropolitan Airport (depends on the time of day). Guests driving their own cars will have access to off street parking.
There is a keypad on the door off of the drive way that allows guests to come and go as they please without the hassle of keys. Guests will be provided a code they can use to enter the house shortly before their stay.

Stewart is a good host and tried to accommodate to my inability to find his place. He also offer god advice and was helpful to provide advice for what I was doing in town and ready for a good (URL HIDDEN) bad it was late and I was tired. I can see he takes this as a business.

JuanMay 2016

I really enjoyed the two days of staying in John's (URL HIDDEN) was queit and clean,near to supermaket,fresh air,safe and friendly neightbor……couldn't be better!

FeliciaOctober 2016

Stewart and Elizabeth were amazing hosts. They were extremely flexible with their check-in and check-out timings, as per our convenience. The room and the house in general, looked exactly the way it did in the photos. Also, it was spick and span. The towels, bedsheets and bedcovers were white as snow. The bathroom and kitchen had everything we needed. There was enough parking space. Also, the highway, restaurants, Church, bank, Pancake World, are all close by. I felt I was at home. A big thanks for everything to you guys. I know where to stay when I visit Detroit again:)

AyeshaJuly 2016

Stewart and Elizabeth were great to stay with; I would highly recommend!

ChristopherJuly 2016

Stewart and Elizabeth were wonderful hosts. Clean and well put together place. Will inquire again in the future.

JimmyFebruary 2016

Comfortable room for a quick night stay. Stewart and Elizabeth are awesome hosts and I will definitely be returning.

PresneyFebruary 2016

What a great place to stay! Elizabeth and Stewart are great people. Upon my arrival, Elizabeth was very welcoming and kind. The house was very guest friendly, and there was even breakfast waiting for me in the morning! Aside from this, the other house guests were also very kind, and great to talk with. I would highly recommend staying at Stewart and Elizabeth's to anyone that asked me! Looking forward to staying there again, thanks you guys!

suzanJanuary 2016

Stewart and Elizabeth are the best hosts ever. They are extremely helpful and friendly. Their house is really really nice. I felt like home. The neighborhood is really nice too. Very safe. All in all I don't think you can find better hosts or better place. Highly recommend.

My place is a 10 min drive to Detroit and is in a safe neighborhood with lots to do within walking distance. Great bars, restaurants, and other amenities around the corner. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, business travelers, families(w/kids), big groups, and furry friends(pets).

The backyard is completely fenced in for your furry friends. You are more than welcome to park in the driveway. You can pull past the fence and close it behind you if you like. Adjust the temperature to what feels right for you. The thermostat is next to the staircase. Take a bath in the claw foot tub if you like! Kick back on the couch and turn on the fireplace. The couch pulls out into bed if you want to get really comfortable. Flip up the couch skirt and pull the handles out and then up and boom- you got a bed. There is bedding for the couch in the coffee table trunk.
You have access to the entire house except the upstairs which is still being remodeled at the moment and the master bedroom closet.
I will be available if you have any questions or if there are any issues. Do not hesitate to ask. I want you to enjoy your stay.

My neighbors are very watchful so please don't be alarmed if they notice you. I'm very appreciative of them and that's why we have such a safe neighborhood. The neighbors are super friendly and fully aware of the house being listed on airbnb.
You will be within walking distance of the local bar, the shores inn, the famous Travis burgers, Cedar garden- amazing mediterranean food, Sy Thai, McDonald's, Taco Bell, CVS, Tim Hortons, Burger King, checkers, and pet supplies plus. There is also a grocery store and much more at each end of my street.
The oven can be difficult to light and doesn't have a pilot light so I would prefer the oven was not used but if you have an extended stay I will talk you through it.

Our place is located in a quiet neighborhood in Warren. You’ll love our place because of the comfy bed in a private room and a beautiful front lawn. My boyfriend loves to make flavorful Indian food and we would love to share it with you if we're home. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, and business travelers. Pets are welcome on a case by case basis.

Your room is private for your needs and some privacy.
You are more than welcome to share the kitchen, living room, and kitchen. This includes access to the fridge, coffee pot, and of course wifi. We also have a large fenced front yard which is great for frisbee and corn hole games when its warm out (or snowmen when the snow hits lol).
My boyfriend and I work a lot of hours in the medical field, but we love meeting new people and would love to get to know you a little if time permits. If you would rather stick to yourself, that's fine too!

Downtown Detroit is 20 mins away even with traffic.
My boyfriend and I work at downtown most days so you can ride with us if timing permits.
Rides to or from the airport could also be arranged on a case-by-case basis.
Close to Gratiot Ave, I-696, and I-94.
12 miles to downtown Detroit and 30 miles to DTW airport.
We have a 6 month old puppy named Lexie. She is very well behaved and doesn't chew anything and is potty trained, but she is still a puppy and gets excited with new guests. Free cuddles and playing catch welcomed!

Very good communication from both. The place was very nice. Both very attentive. Thanks

Cozy, clean and comfortable apartment with everything you need to enjoy your stay.
Wifi, Netflix, towels, sheets, kitchen fully equipped, 2 queen beds, air bed for extra guests, washer, dryer, passes to the community pool.
Just to check in and out

Beautiful streets full of trees that makes your evening walks a pleasure during summer and fall.
Two miles from Nautical mile, easy access to I-94 and 696 highways, 13 miles northeast of downtown Detroit

The condo was lived up and exceeded our expectations. It was a great venue for our family to stay for a couple of weeks while relocating back into the Detroit area. It is in a great neighborhood with easy access to the local freeways with most of the metro Detroit area reachable within 30 minutes. Sandy is a wonderful host. A must stay for any couple or small family visiting Detroit.

StevenOctober 2016

Sandy was very easy to communicate with. Her place is clean, safe, quiet and convenient!

RickNovember 2016

Sandy's place was great! Very clean living space and comfortable. Definitely would recommend to a friend.

MatthewOctober 2016

My family and I had a good time staying in Sandy's condo. The neighbors were a little noisy, but, other than that, everything went smoothly and as expected. Lots of convenient storage. If you look at it on a map, it's near a main road -- but we never heard the road once (and I'm a very light sleeper). Quick access to the highway. Very child-friendly. Quick walk to a library with a children's section, too.

Private room with lock on the door. Matresses available, twin and queen. Close to 696.

Randall was accommodating for last minute arrangements. Great host. The place is clean and new. It's a great value.

SiraNovember 2016

Nice & convenient. Highly recommend it.

CarlosOctober 2016

Randall is a great host definitely recommend home is newly refinished and clean.

jesseOctober 2016

Randall's place is very comfortable and convenient to stay, and it is super clean and well organized. Randall is an amazing host, when I first arrived it was really late and I haven't have any food, so he drove me out to grab some food and coffee which was really nice. He was very nice and fun to talk too. The room is not that big but it's good enough for two people and have a closet as well. Throughout the stay, Randall doesn't stay at home very much but when he's home he make sure everything's in place and clean up the house even though there's really not much too clean. It is a little bit far from city Detroit but the area is very safe to stay and walk around. It also near some convience store, bank and fast food restaurants so it's quite a nice place to stay, especially for a long time because it's a very good deal.

CaseyNovember 2016

Great host and awesome place. Better than described. Definitely recommended!

We live a mile away and stop by regularly to clean the house. There is plenty of good restaurants within walking distance. This room is perfect for students on rotation at St. John's Hospital.

Our house has a ton of natural light coming in. This room in particular has a very light and cheerful feel, and is located on the main floor of the house. We like to call it the "Green Room." It comfortably sleeps two people. We do make 4 bedrooms available to our guests to stay in, and one or more of the other rooms may be booked during your stay.
We provide off street parking to our guests. We have 2 spaces in our garage and 1 space in the yard behind our house. Parking in the garage is 1st come 1st served.
Guests will have access to laundry, Kitchen, Living Room, Bathroom, Wi-fi, and their bedroom.
Our neighborhood is a beautiful place with many similar brick bungalows which were built in the 1950s. The streets are well kept, the children are always out playing in their front yards, and people are always out walking their dogs and enjoying the weather in the summer. You also frequently see people out doing yard work because they take pride in the appearance of their houses in this neighborhood.
We provide off-street parking for all of our SUVs/trucks may need to park in the front of the driveway or street. Parking is available on the street in front of the house, but leaving your car there overnight may lead to a $10 parking ticket. Temporary month long permits to park overnight can be obtained at the Harper Woods police station for guests who wish to park on the street and are staying for a longer period of time.
In case you plan on using public transit, there is a public bus system called SMART bus. You can visit their website Smartbus.org , which has all of the system maps and schedules to help you plan your trip around the metro Detroit area. We highly suggest using Uber instead though. It is much faster and reasonably priced.
The house has no TV's.
Guests will have access to laundry, Kitchen (Dishes, appliances, and utensils) Living Room, Bathroom, Wifi, and their bedroom.
We no longer live in the house since May 2016. We live a mile away. We stop by often to make sure the house is clean. We will most likely not meet you during your stay, but we try to respond to messages on AirBNB very promptly. Guests are welcome to call us, any time of the day or night. We would happily resolve any issue.

I had a perfect stay. Stewart and Elizabeth were very welcoming and made me feel comfortable right when I walked in the door. The room was exactly as advertised and was great to relax in after a long drive. Elizabeth even made pumpkin pie that was delicious. Thanks for a great stay!

Great place, great location! The room is exactly as on the pictures; it's very clean and a nice, quiet place. Elizabeth came by and cleaned the bathroom, so even though we were 6 people sharing the house, it was still very clean.

ChristineJuly 2016

Stewart & Elizabeth were very kind and easy to communicate with. I met Elizabeth one of the mornings I was there and she was a genuinely warm and welcoming person. The room and house were perfect! Just as described. 5 Star Hotel level cleanliness. If you're ever in the area I would definitely recommend their home if it's available.

DanJune 2016

Elizabeth and Stewart were very gracious hosts. They were very welcoming and the room we stayed in was clean and warm. I felt comfortable and safe and would definitely stay again!

Affordable place in Warren. Perfect for people or families on temporary work, looking for work, or on business. This place is meant to give you the basics at an affordable rate. Nothing fancy but comfortable, clean, and spacious enough for 4 people.
1 queen matress in one room; 2 twin beds in another room.
Sorry no wifi or TV for now.

Entire place: Simple two bedroom house with stove, refrigerator, plates, utensils, 4-seat dinning table, 1 queen bed, 2 twin beds
The guests can access the entire home except the garage, the crawl space or attic, but there is no need to go to those places anyway.
If I am not available, my maintenance person Laura can take care of your needs. Upon booking, you will receive her contact info.

Although close to Detroit's infamous or famous 8-Mile, this street and this neighborhood are relatively safe and patrolled often by the Warren police. There haven't been any break-ins on this house even when it was vacant and with an open window that I forgot to close for several months. The neighbors haven't had any issues either. There is also a motion detection security bright light that will turn on when you pull into the driveway so you won't have to open the front door in the dark if you need to enter at night.

The place was big for the price. A little run down but showed signs of ongoing renovations. It'll probably be twice as nice in six months. It was very clean.

RyanNovember 2016

This place has exactly what is pictured, three beds and a table. There is a coffee post and some dishes along with a washer and dryer. It has off street parking and all the basics. It is cost effective for a place to rest.
